# rsyslog v3: load input modules
# If you do not load inputs, nothing happens!
# You may need to set the module load path if modules are not found.

$ModLoad immark   # provides --MARK-- message capability
$ModLoad imuxsock # provides support for local system logging (e.g. via logger command)
$ModLoad imklog   # kernel logging (formerly provided by rklogd)
$ModLoad imzeromq.so # zeromq input
$ModLoad omzeromq.so # zeromq output
# Log all kernel messages to the console.
# Logging much else clutters up the screen.
